Skin & Bones is a book in the Hardy Boys series. It was first published in 2000. [1]
Cody Chang sells such unusual items as animal skulls, fish skeletons and reptile skins at his shop Skin & Bones in San Francisco. He calls on the Hardy Boys to investigate when the shop is ransacked. Frank and Joe suspect a criminal is trying to get revenge on Cody's policeman father by breaking his son's business down, but they have their work cut out to prove it.
In 2024 the book was banned in Texas by the Katy Independent School District on the basis that the novel is "adopting, supporting, or promoting gender fluidity" [2] despite also pronouncing a bullying policy that protects infringements on the rights of the student. [3]
